Detailed Solution

Poverty rate is not an indicator of the Human Development Index.
The Human Development Index is a measure used to understand the achievement of people in three different aspects of life: a long and healthy life, a decent standard of living, and knowledge. It is used in comparing countries wherein importance is given to other aspects of life rather than focusing on economic growth alone. The life expectancy rate is used to understand how much of a long and healthy life the citizens of a country are enjoying. Similarly, the gross enrolment ratio helps to understand the knowledge level of people of a nation, and per capita income helps to understand the standard of living. The poverty rate is not used to understand any of these aspects.
